I broke my button off with my kneecap a few years ago when I had bulky bucket seats in my truck. There is a stub that is about even with the plastic shroud left.

I have poked around with mine and several in JY's and haven't figured out how to swap the plastic part of it to get a whole one again without swapping ignition switches. Anyone else gone down this road?
 
if you can warm it up with a heat gun just before it melts itll pull off. then superglue in the hole to put on the new one. note; there were some fin/spline teeth on the steel part. I literally just did this same repair on my 84 b2
